You would take cash over Creme Eggs???? You''ll be substituting chocolate for milk next, this here is crazy talk!!!!!!! Send me the eggs, I will look after them very well, promise.

And what is it with men and Creme Eggs. My man (who doesn't like sweets, cakes or choclate...........yeah right), will demolish anything, except Creme Eggs. They are my favourite. I have only had one this year

She bought the eggs at the local market where they sell them for 5 for £1...I've been resisting the temptation all year to buy a pack of 5, and now I get 100!! As you see, she's VERY generous and an absolute sweetheart, but whenever I say I'm on a diet it's like a red rag to a bull - she suddenly showers me with chocolate

I can resist everything except temptation

Oh MY! 100 creme eggs! We have a trade size box of them on our breakfast bar! I had to buy it to keep Dom (boyf/DH/fiance/whatever) happy. I bought a box of 12 a few weeks ago and he had them all eaten before I'd had one!

I've been sent home for the afternoon by my tutor !

My Grandad (whose 90th party it was few weeks ago) has fallen in the night and broke his femur. Mum and Dad got a phone call this morning from his care home, but it sounded like it wasn't serious.

I called mum cos she'd just called Dom in a flap! Turns out the anasthesiologist told her that it was a life threatening condition and they were just about to take him into life threatening surgery! Nice Eh!? She was a bit annoyed cos if they'd have said that this morning then they would've gone to see him. Instead they're going tonight if/when he comes out of surgery.

So I went to tell my tutor and promptly burst into tears so he told me to go home! Cunning plan eh? I've just got so much work to do and this is about the last straw!

Anyway so he'll be ok. Will find out in a bit! Meanwhile I'm following orders with my feet up and a cuppa! Needless to say the eating bit's gone out the window for now!

Hi Dippy - welcome to the board, glad you can join us - the more the merrier.

I'm a member of the yo-yo club too, I reckon I've lost and then gained about 50 stone over the years, but it's nearly always the same half-stone or so

Yaaayy for Grandad

Well, its almost 6pm and all i've had today is a yogurt smoothie and 2 bottles of Stella would have had more but I did'nt think we'd work as long as we did so I did'nt take a lunch anyway, my smoothie held me until I got home and now i'm not that hungry will be having chicken strips and oven chips though regardless

Managed to scrape through with a binge yesterday! 1700 cals approx. I even resisted the doughnuts at work!


Grandad's taken a turn for the worse! They think he's had a heart attack so mum and Dad have gone through to see him. I wouldn't be able to get there for ages so am staying put. I'm on my 3rd sweetie attack of the day...
